Rapid coherent control of population transfer in lattice systems

preprint2013arXivOpen access

Abstract

We derive the driving potential that accelerates adiabatic population transfer from an initial state to a target state in a lattice system without unwanted excitation of other states by extending to discrete systems the fast-forward theory of adiabatic transfer. As an example we apply the theory to a model that describes a Bose-Einstein condensate in a quasi one-dimensional optical lattice, and show that modulation of the tilting of the lattice potential can transfer the population of the Bose-Einstein condensate from site to site with high fidelity and without unwanted excitations.
